newbie question what path do i install mods?

[Todd]

using winrar what path do i extract huge mod to?

 

[jackyjkchan]

depends, because it replaces file in the C:proframfilesmount&blademodsnative
folder, and back up the original stuff btw

 

[jackyjkchan]

so normal, set the path to the native folder in the mods folder which is in your moun&blade folder.

That would be correct for most mods, but NOT the hugemod. You extract it to Crogram FilesMount&Blade . And since you're using WinRAR, it will make Crogram FilesMount&BladehomethanatosProgramshugemodMount&Blade instead. Take the files out of each subdirectory of the extracted folder tree and put it into the right folder in Crogram FilesMount&Blade . For example, all the files in Crogram FilesMount&BladehomethanatosProgramshugemodMount&BladeCommonRes go into Crogram FilesMount&BladeCommonRes . Overwrite the old ones, but remember to make backups as jackyjkchan said.

edit: Explaining the WinRAR comment: something is wierd with this file that makes the huge folder tree. Other programs can extract to the right place by extracting $file$homethanatosProgramshugemodMount&Blade to Crogram FilesMount&Blade, but for some reason WinRAR won't. It will always extract the whole tree above that folder.

You could check the hugemod thread....

 

[jackyjkchan]

most mods only effect the mod file.
bigger mods effect the texture file as well.

I think it is better to ask these question's In the actual Hugemod thread....considering the creator should know the most about how to install.

It's just a RAR file... I bet they were just a bit lazy to remove all the directory structure under the M&B main folder.
